After all the screaming and shouting about "assault rifles!, those damn assault rifles!", we get the confirmation that:

1) There was no assault rifle used in the Newtown, CONN, shooting.

There was NO rifle used, of any kind, in this shooting.

The gunman used four pistols. (Not the reported two pistols).

2) There was a rifle left in the trunk of the car the killer drove. From somewhat hazy video (low light), the rifle is a semi-automatic, but doesn't appear to be an "assault rifle" (AR-15), as previously reported.

This was reported confirmed by Pete Williams at NBC, among others.

But we need to ban assault rifles anyway. All that black, dangerous plastic on the stock and grips - makes the rifle just force you to start shooting people, doesn't it?
